Four o'Clocic.—Some of the boats are just come from the Sand, and, at the risk of their o r kilt lives, have used every effort in their power to savc the crew, but, I am sorry to say, to7;no effect—she disappeared all at once, and ‘vent'to pieces, and no doubt the. crew are all los.. She was a large sloop, with a nioninghowsprit, and a top-sail yard across. These are the only parti culars I can give you ,at present.
